Victorinox 3.25 inch Paring Knife, Spear Point, Large, Maple Wood Handle 5.3000

Important change made to wood handles: Victorinox cares about the environment and due to new protections for Rosewood Trees, this item will no longer have the original Rosewood handles. The handles have been changed to maple wood that is stained in rosewood color. Our classic, traditional Maple Wood handle is designed to provide maximum comfort at all times. Maple Wood handles feature a carved handle design with the unique beauty of natural Maple Wood, extra durable. A paring knife is a small knife with a plain edge blade that is ideal for peeling and other small or intricate work such as deveining a shrimp, removing the seeds from a jalapeno, or cutting small garnishes. It is designed to be an all-purpose knife, similar to a chef's knife, except smaller. High carbon stainless steel blades are hand finished in Switzerland by skilled craftsmen. These blades do not discolor or stain. These knives are specially ground and tempered so that they can be re-sharpened over and over again, keeping a sharp edge throughout their lifetime. Each Victorinox knife is stamped from a single sheet of metal. The blade is then hardened, tempered, ground down, polished, etched and finished. Swiss Army Victorinox provides professionals in food processing and preparation with superior quality, value-priced cutlery that enhances performance and increases productivity.
